About this study

Decreased pulmonary function, peripheral muscle strength, and exercise capacity were reported in primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) in recent studies. We aimed to investigate the data conducted between 10 July 2015 and 10 January 2015 of pulmonary function, respiratory muscle strength, exercise capacity, physical fitness, and activities of daily living (ADL) in PCD and healthy counterparts retrospectively at the first stage of the study and the effects of inspiratory muscle training on pulmonary function, respiratory muscle strength, and exercise capacity in PCD patients with decreased inspiratory muscle strength from the database recorded between 10 July 2015 and 10 January 2015 retrospectively at the second stage of the study.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. A primer outcome for the first stage of the study: Physical fitness

    Munich Physical Fitness Test (MFT) was used to evaluate physical fitness. It is a test with six parameters including ball bounce, sandbag throwing, bending, vertical jumping, hanging and step test.

    Measured: 10 July 2015-10 January 2015-retrospectively

  2. A primer outcome for the second stage of the study: Functional capacity

    Functional capacity was evaluated with six minute walk test (6MWT).

    Measured: 10 July 2015-10 January 2015-retrospectively

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Demographic features

    The age was recorded in years.

    Measured: 10 July 2015-10 January 2015-retrospectively

  2. Demographic features

    Weight was recorded in kilograms.

    Measured: 10 July 2015-10 January 2015-retrospectively

  3. Demographic features

    The length was saved in meters.

    Measured: 10 July 2015-10 January 2015-retrospectively

  4. Demographic features

    Body mass index was calculated by dividing the weight by the square of the height (kg/m^2) and recorded.

    Measured: 10 July 2015-10 January 2015-retrospectively

  5. Pulmonary Function

    Pulmonary function (FEV1 (forced expiratory volume in one second), FVC (forced vital capacity), FEV1/FVC, FEF25-75 (%) (forced expiratory volume 25-75 %) and PEF (peak expiratory flow)) assessed with a portable spirometer (Spirobank MIR, Italy).

    Measured: 10 July 2015-10 January 2015-retrospectively

  6. Respiratory muscle functions

    Respiratory muscle strength (maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP);maximal expiratory pressure (MEP), respectively) was measured with a portable, electronic mouth pressure monitor (Micro Medical MicroMPM, UK) and recorded.

    For second stage of the study; average inspiratory flow, inspiratory volume, and inspiratory work was evaluated based on the outcomes of the Breathe-Link software using POWERbreathe K5 device before and after IMT with tapered flow resistive loading and recorded.

    Measured: 10 July 2015-10 January 2015-retrospectively

  7. Exercise Capacity

    Exercise capacity was assessed with the modified shuttle walk test.

    Measured: 10 July 2015-10 January 2015-retrospectively

  8. Activities of Daily Living

    Glittre activities of daily living (ADL) test was used to evaluate daily life activity.

    Measured: 10 July 2015-10 January 2015-retrospectively

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia and Kartagener Syndrome, run by Hacettepe University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Oct 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

A primer outcome for the first stage of the study: Physical fitness (time frame: 10 July 2015-10 January 2015-retrospectively). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 2 Oct 2024.
